Bestowing THE FREEDOM OF BARRACKS McBUNNY

1 January 2010

From the Office of the Mayor
Barracks McBunny
County Merkin
Eire

To Lord Valve
Denver
Colorado
United States of America\

My Lord Valve,

THE FREEDOM OF BARRACKS McBUNNY

As you may know, every American President has Irish roots or, as The
Jute of Coolmaine so mordantly observed of his great friend William
Jefferson Clinton, "Only an Irishman is smart enough to be President
of the United States. And only American Democrats are kind enough to
believe he won't steal them blind." It being a matter of tourism and
hence money, Irish towns compete hotly to be the ancestral home of
each president.

The Irish Tourist Board having consulted the Sage of Coolmaine, it has
been decided that the border town of Barracks McBunny, the Home of the
Black Irish, is clearly where President O'Bunny's ancestors came from.

Our marketing plan has now been completed with the renaming of the
James Joyce ****up, "the dirtiest pub in Christendom, no English
welcome," as the Free Alfred to celebrate the giving of the Nobel
Prize to President O'Bunny for being the first of the Black Irishman
to be elected President of the World.

The Sage of Coolmaine has further suggested that, in recognition of
the fact that you, my lord Valve, are the only Colorado Republican and
paid-up member of the NRA to have voted for President O'Bunny, be
offered the Freedom of the Free Town of Barracks McBunny.

The big cardboard key and the elaborately laser-printed scroll,
suitable for framing, will arrive by prepaid registered post.
Congratulations.

If you ever come to Barracks McBunny, pop into the mayoral office over
my butcher's shop (you can't miss it, it's in the middle of Main
Street which is also the only street) for a glass of O'Bunny Special,
which is flat beer with a lot of hot air (CO2-free) blown through it.

All hail, Freeman of Barracks McBunny!

Yours sincerely,

Oliver Dingle O'Driscoll
Mayor and Butcher
Barracks McBunny
Ancestral Home of the Black Irish President

Jute, you clazy. They got watermelons in Ireland? (I mean,
other than the communists who disappeared into the environmental
movement when Gorby got glasnosted?)

Better to be clazy (clued-up and lazy), than lazy and clueless.

Not since the medieval warm period. The little ice age wiped the
watermelons and paw-paws.

We had a flax industry, but the Black Irish didn't work in it. Such
honest work was beneath the dignity of poteen men (distillers of
illegal liquor). The Black Irish weren't all congenitally criminal
bootleggers, of course, but it could be a while before I can think if
an example.

(I mean,
other than the communists who disappeared into the environmental
movement when Gorby got glasnosted?)

Heh-heh. Letters were leaked about that time showing that our lefties,
in the person of their political party leader, wrote to KGB
headquarters in Moscow to send hard men to deal with some stroppy
elements within his party. You only had to look at that lot to know
they were Black Irish.

The Kennedys were Black irish too, and see how they turned out.

Congratulations, dear Valve, on receiving the Freedom of Barracks
McBunny.

Dear Jooto El Frooto and sock puppet Lard Vulva

Could you possibly remove rec.bicycles.tech from your crossposting list?
After your affecting New Year farewell message that hardly anybody noticed or
cared about, why do you continue to crosspost off topic drivel to a bicycle
newsgroup?

PH

P.S. Lard Vulva has now been sentenced to Block Island along with you and Gray
Asser. Directing abuse at me is futile. I won't see it.

Because the Idiot Jute sees it as a feather in his cap to destroy
newsgroups. The cure is to IGNORE him, which too few people seem to be
able to do.
